¶ When I bought this group of gleaming first editions on the strength of some photos I feared that the photographer had been too kind and the flaws would only be seen after I opened the box. But no. The books are better than the photos. That's because this is a set of facsimiles published by Yushodo in an edition of 300 copies in 1981 and 82. Never heard of it until now. It is a publishing triumph, I guess. And no doubt it was ferociously expensive. Still, here it is at a lot less than it cost me.
